red band trailer definitely not safe for work:

WTF? Over.
…a movie about a 10 year old girl who shoots people in the face and swears like a Marine NCO.
Umm…
Apparently it’s a comic book character brought to the big screen.
Still pegging the “Ummm…” meter, though.
Official movie site:
I’m done with Nicholas Cage movies so I doubt I’ll see it.
Some of you are wound waaaay too tight. It looks campy kind of like Boondock Saints, which was gun guy campy.
Edited to add: After thinking about it, I’d feel really weird sitting in a theater and couldn’t even think about enjoying a film like this. Weirdo’s in trench coats that drive panel vans will be plentiful at that showing.
… the fuck?
Looks like kind of a rip off of an anime Gunslinger Girl. It aired in 2003
I think it looks like great fun. Hey, it’s just a movie.
“Train your children well and there will be no need for worry…”
Exactly why I’ll skip it.
I think her mid air reloads are faster than yours.
the movie is called Kick-Ass, Hit Girl is one of the main characters.
I’ve been practicing. I think the problem is that I’m not cussing enough while I do them…
I’ll wait til it comes on one of the movie channels or TV. I’m pretty sure I heard the Banana Splits theme song going on in that trailer. Anyone else hear it?
I saw the preview when I saw Boondock Saints 2. Kick-Ass looks funny as hell.
Cage sucks. I guess no one will be confusing this film with a Disney movie…
Covered by the punk rock band The Dickies. Youtube video
(edit: here’s the original for those compelled to do a comparison)
Punk rock version of a kid’s tune seems fitting for the character if you ask me…
I generally don’t care for him, but I thought he did a great job with Lord of War.
uuuhhhhh…
this is taking things way too far. seeing a 10 year old girl swearing as bad as me and killing dozens of grown men in creatively gory ways… the appeal of female assassins in tight outfits is entirely sexual, in an latent, obscure S&M kind of way. at the risk of offending many, the whole idea almost seems pedophilic.
at what point in our society did we lose the society-wide drive to preserve innocence in children? are we so disgusted with our own moral degeneration that we cant stand the presence of even childhood innocence? why is there no longer an ingrained mechanism in parents to keep children children- to keep them blissfully ignorant of the woes and horrors of real life and adulthood, so that they can simply exist for a short time in this world in fun and safety, playing and laughing at lame jokes and jests. crime and sex and war and vanity and sin and dog-eat-dog will come soon enough. far too soon, these days, thanks to our fucked up MSM and fucked up society that encourages it.
think i’ll take a big pass on this one, gentlemen.
Ok, makes enough sense; I’ll buy it.
Whoa there big daddy. It’s a little girl with a purple wig in a superhero costume. This may appeal to the segment of the population that has made purple wig superheroine porn such a huge hit…
The humor is in the irony: cute little girl who, as my friend JW777 said, “shoots people in the face and swears like a Marine NCO.”
Irony. It’s not a type of metal.
Though were one to lower oneself to the sophomoric humor of the film in question, one might be tempted to respond to your suggestion with: whoever smelt it, dealt it.
